    Very light mist just stopping... Little warm at 52 degrees. Think it's finally time to break out the antlers for a rattling sequence.

    I was pretty happy. She's my first trad deer and I loved it. I actually thought I missed her because I pulled so bad to the left on the shot. I got lucky and it just caught her jugular and she went about 75 yards and piled up. Just extremely lucky is all. It was one of those shots you have every blue moon when you just randomly pull so bad that you would miss the target. I just happened to do it right then.

    I saw a deers *** moving. It (wasn't sure what it was) was running away. I thought maybe it busted me or something. Then another one same spot. Saw antler. But again running away

    So I'm just sitting going damn where did they come from. But I'm like there is definitely chasing.


    So I'm sitting there about 3 min and here comes the doe back to
    Me. Running.

    So I get stood up and ready. The doe runs past me. And about 20 seconds later I see brown running my way. It's a buck. He is running hard He gets closer and it's a messed up rack. Wide but no time length. He literally runs under my stand grunting. He stops at the base Of my tree and just stands there. He walks off and I let him go.

    I didn't even hang the bow back up and I see another buck coming and running hard as well. This is a big one. I'm going holy **** he is going to run right past me. I get ready. Here he comes. Now I gotta stop him. I let out a loud brrraaaap to stop him. He slams on the brakes I line it up and drill him

    He ran 50 yards. Fell. Got back up went another 20 and crashed
